Technical information

9 Insert the PCI card with its attachments into the computer’s PCI slot, pressing down firmly until all
parts are fully inserted.
m Don’t rock the card side-to-side; instead, press the card’s connectors straight into the slot. (Rocking
the card can damage the PCI slot.)
m Press firmly but don’t force the card. If you meet a lot of resistance, pull the card out and try again.
m To see if the card is properly connected, pull it gently. If it resists and stays in place, it’s connected.
(Make sure you don’t pull the card so much that you accidentally disconnect it.)
